What is PoSkarby?
PoSkarby (poskarby.pl) is a Polish local classifieds marketplace for second-hand items. The name means “going for treasures” in Polish — it helps people clear out the attic, basement or wardrobe, and find what they need nearby instead of buying new.
How it works
Take one photo of an item. AI recognises what it is and suggests a title, description, category and price. Adjust anything you like and publish — usually in about 30 seconds.
Buyers browse listings on a map and in a list around them, message the seller in the built-in chat and arrange an in-person pick-up.
Key features
- Completely free — no listing fees and no commission on sales.
- Create a listing from a single photo with AI.
- Sell for a price, give away for free, or swap.
- Reserve an item for 24 hours.
- “Hunts” — saved searches that notify you when a matching item appears nearby.
- Several items from one seller — one chat, a separate reservation for each item and one meeting.
- Safe-exchange tips, suggested public meeting places and ratings after each deal.
- Runs in the browser on phone and desktop; can be added to the home screen like an app.
Who it is for
Anyone in Poland who wants to sell or give away furniture, electronics, clothes, books, toys, sports gear, tools, kitchenware, decor or garden items locally without shipping parcels — and buyers who prefer to see an item in person and take it home the same day. It is also handy for expats, students and newcomers furnishing a flat.
Where it works
PoSkarby works across Poland. The first community is growing in Wrocław, which currently has the most listings. The interface is available in Polish and English.
Who runs it
PoSkarby is run by a private individual based in Poland. It does not handle payments — buyers and sellers settle directly at pick-up. Contact: hello@poskarby.pl.
